Bisenzio Tower is a former customs post which once guarded the Umbrian-Tuscan-Lazio border. Now a luxury home for holiday rental by its owners, it sits on a ridge with stunning views over the hills and valleys towards Orvieto and Tuscany. The tower was built in the 13th century and the rest of the buildings added in the 17th century.

Bisenzio Tower has 8 en suite bedrooms laid out over two buildings, separated by a beautiful courtyard.

The gardens which surround La Torre are truly delightful. These stunning terraced gardens were created by the famous Tuscan landscape designer Alberto Margheriti. Numerous sitting out areas offer great views over the hills and valleys below. Lavender, jasmine, rosemary, thyme, sage, roses and even a sweet curry leaf plant all flourish in the sunshine.

A gazebo complete with stone built barbeque and pizza oven is the perfect place for a lazy lunch or romantic evening dining.

The large heated infinity pool has the same magnificent views…..perfect for evening dips under the stars and a grandstand view of the fireflies’ firework displays in early summer.

And for the even more energetic, the gardens include a shady boules court.
